Product details
Overview
SI5338D-B04193-GMR from Skyworks Solutions is a quad-output, I²C-programmable clock generator using MultiSynth™ technology to synthesize independent frequencies up to 710 MHz on four differential outputs with 0 ppm precision, 0.7 ps RMS typical phase jitter, and PCIe Gen 1–4 compliance - deployed in Ethernet switches, FPGA clocking, and broadcast video timing systems.
For engineers reviewing the SI5338D-B04193-GMR datasheet, SI5338D-B04193-GMR pinout, SI5338D-B04193-GMR application, or SI5338D-B04193-GMR equivalent, key selection criteria include differential output format support (LVPECL/LVDS/HCSL), independent per-output voltage control (1.5–3.3 V), spread-spectrum capability (0.5–5.0% at 33–63 kHz), and 24-QFN package compatibility with PCIe Gen 4 SRNS requirements.
Technical Context
The SI5338D-B04193-GMR integrates two synthesis stages: a PLL-based Stage 1 (with 1.6 MHz loop bandwidth) and four independent MultiSynth™ fractional-N dividers in Stage 2, enabling any-frequency synthesis from a single reference input. It supports external crystal (8–30 MHz), CMOS (5–200 MHz), SSTL/HSTL (5–350 MHz), or differential (5–710 MHz) references.
Each of its four output drivers is fully configurable for signal format (LVPECL, LVDS, HCSL, CMOS, SSTL, HSTL), output voltage (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V), and features independent phase adjustment (<20 ps steps), frequency increment/decrement (1 ppm steps), and spread-spectrum modulation - all controlled via I²C/SMBus interface with OTP NVM storage.

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MultiSynth™ synthesis | Enables true zero-ppm accuracy across all four outputs without external crystals or VCXOs |
| PCIe Gen 4 SRNS compliance | Meets <0.32 ps RMS jitter requirement under separate reference no-spread conditions (2–5 MHz PLL BW) |

| Configurable spread spectrum | Programmable 0.5–5.0% down-spread at 33–63 kHz on any output to reduce EMI in dense PCB layouts |
| External feedback mode | Supports zero-delay operation by routing an output back to feedback input for deterministic latency |
| Loss-of-signal detection | Triggers alarm within 2.6–5 µs on input failure - enables fast failover in redundant clock architectures |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad-output clock generator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5338A-B-GM | Same architecture and pinout; factory-programmed with fixed configuration (no field I²C reprogramming) | Limited to pre-defined frequency sets; unsuitable for designs requiring runtime frequency agility | Select SI5338D-B04193-GMR when field-upgradable clock trees or multi-project reuse of same hardware is required. |
| LMK04832ISQE/NOPB | Two-stage jitter cleaner + generator; higher integration (integrated LDOs, dual PLLs); larger 48-QFN package | Better suited for ultra-low-noise RF or data converter clocking where additive jitter <0.1 ps RMS is mandatory | Choose SI5338D-B04193-GMR for cost-sensitive, space-constrained PCIe/FPGA applications where 0.7 ps RMS meets spec. |
Compared with Si5338A-B-GM, SI5338D-B04193-GMR offers full I²C configurability and field reprogrammability; versus LMK04832ISQE/NOPB, it trades jitter cleaning depth and power integration for smaller footprint and lower BOM cost in mid-performance timing applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency supported by SI5338D-B04193-GMR?
The SI5338D-B04193-GMR supports up to 710 MHz on LVPECL/LVDS/CML outputs and 350 MHz on SSTL/HSTL outputs. For frequencies above 350 MHz, only two unique outputs may operate simultaneously - specifically Fvco/4 and Fvco/6 - as defined in the synthesis architecture. All outputs maintain 0.7 ps RMS typical jitter at these rates when driven differentially with proper layout.
Does SI5338D-B04193-GMR support PCIe Gen 4 Separate Reference No Spread (SRNS) compliance?
Yes, SI5338D-B04193-GMR meets PCIe Gen 4 SRNS requirements with <0.32 ps RMS jitter (typical) under specified test conditions: PLL bandwidth set to 2–5 MHz, CDR = 10 MHz, and HCSL 100 MHz outputs. This compliance is verified per PCI-SIG Base Specification 4.0 rev. 0.5 and confirmed using the Skyworks PCIe Clock Jitter Tool.
Can SI5338D-B04193-GMR generate different output voltages on each driver?
Yes, SI5338D-B04193-GMR provides independent VDDO0–VDDO3 supplies, allowing each of its four output pairs to be configured for 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V logic levels. This enables direct interfacing with mixed-voltage SoCs, FPGAs, and PHYs without level-shifting components - a key advantage over fixed-supply clock generators.
How is SI5338D-B04193-GMR programmed, and is external nonvolatile memory required?
SI5338D-B04193-GMR is programmed via its integrated I²C/SMBus interface using ClockBuilder Pro software. Configuration is stored in on-chip one-time-programmable (OTP) memory, eliminating the need for external EEPROM or flash. Factory programming or field updates are both supported, and the device boots with valid clocks within 2 ms of power-on.
What reference inputs does SI5338D-B04193-GMR accept?
SI5338D-B04193-GMR accepts six reference inputs: two differential pairs (IN1/IN2, IN5/IN6) for 5–710 MHz; two single-ended pins (IN3, IN4) supporting CMOS (5–200 MHz), SSTL/HSTL (5–350 MHz); and an internal oscillator for 8–30 MHz crystals. Input flexibility allows seamless integration into legacy and next-gen timing architectures.
